Television
ABC Victoria (branded ABC1) broadcasts one match a week live on Saturday afternoons during the home and away season, as well as broadcasting most finals matches. In 2006 and 2007 ABC2 showed replays of VFL matches late on Wednesday nights (early Thursday morning) to a national audience.
C31 Melbourne currently covers VFL football on The Local Footy Show and telecasts live league games as well as the TAC Cup, Victorian Country Football League, Victorian Women's Football League and the AFL Victorian Youth Girls Competition.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“His [O.J. Simpson’s] supporters lined the freeway to cheer him on Friday and commentators talked about his tragedy. Did those people see the photographs of the crime scene and the great blackening pools of blood seeping into the sidewalk? Did battered women watch all this on television and realize more vividly than ever before that their lives were cheap and their pain inconsequential?”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“Addison DeWitt: Your next move, it seems to me, should be toward television.
Miss Caswell: Tell me this. Do they have auditions for television?
Addison DeWitt: That’s all television is, my dear. Nothing but auditions.”
—Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)
“All television ever did was shrink the demand for ordinary movies. The demand for extraordinary movies increased. If any one thing is wrong with the movie industry today, it is the unrelenting effort to astonish.”
—Clive James (b. 1939)
